Food allergy

Mount Sinai Journal of Medicine: A Journal of Translational and Personalized Medicine, 2002
Abstract1 Food allergy appears to be increasing in prevalence and is estimated to affect >2% and possibly up to 10% of the population. Food allergies are defined by an immune response triggered by food proteins. Emerging data suggest that carbohydrate moieties on food proteins, specifically mammalian meats, may also elicit allergic responses.

Food allergies

Current Gastroenterology Reports, 2002
Adverse reactions to foods are commonly implicated in the causation of ill health. However, foreign antigens, including food proteins and commensal microbes encountered in the gastrointestinal tract, are usually well tolerated. True food allergies, implying immune-mediated adverse responses to food antigens, do exist, however, and are especially common

Food allergy

Allergy, 1988
Food allergies are immunologic reactions to food allergens or food components. Several distinct clinical entities fall under this term, including immediate-in-time allergic reactions, which are IgE-dependent and involve mast cells and basophils, and delayed-in-time reactions to foods, such as food-induced enterocolitis, which involve additional ...
